Allllllll righty then. Time to start chapter 4! Here's hoping this one will be easier for me! Did you know that this chapter was going to be double the size? Kinda as my apology for no uploading for a bit. To be fair, I did say at least once a month, so don't expect anymore chapters for the rest of january. I'll be too busy with Cyberpunk. Anywho, reviews are always nice, so don't be afraid to do so!

As the two checked into the hotel they went up to their room. Liebe, however,felt like they were being watched. "Hey dumbass,"

What? Asta moaned as he unpacked the little things he had, I'm kinda in the middle of something

"We're being watched"

Wait what? But how? I thought we were not being followed?

"Yeah, on the walk here. But I think that this guy isn't actually looking for us. Judging by his ki, he's looking for Martha or whatever the fuck her name is."

What's ki? Asta asked.

"Kinda complicated to explain"

At least try. Asta tried to persuade Liebe. Truth be told, he just wanted to know how Liebe could sense things in his-no-their-no-whatever the grimoire.

"Ki is... complicated. So, you have your five senses, right?" Asta hmphs, "With ki, you use those senses to find the energy of a specific thing. Essentially, ki is all the different types of life energy that the body releases."

See, was that so hard? Asta asked

"So we're getting sassy are we? I BET you can't do it first try."

Fine and like that, Asta tried to focus his ki.

Annnnnnd nothing. Fuck

"Not so easy now hmm?" Liebe asked Asta sarcastically. Seems like karma's come back to bite Asta in the ass.

Fuck this, I'm going to bed.

"Well, I'm hitting the sack. See ya in the morning!"

"Yes, see-" Martha was cut off as Thomas started snoring.

/./

A few hours later, it was clear that he wasn't waking up any time soon.

Good she thought.

At that, Martha got up from her bed, and snuck out the window. Then, she brought out her grimoire. Until after,

"Why, young mistress, it's not safe for someone like you to be out here all alone. Please, come back with me." The man said with a tone of an aristocrat. He had come out of the bushes, which had previously masked his appearance.

The man had blue eyes and had strawberry blonde hair. The man wore a white fabric shirt, along with blue pants. Combine those two cloths with his Silver Eagles robe, it is obvious that he is a magic knight.

Could he be looking for me? No, brother doesn't care. He said so himself. "Thank you, but I can handle myself."

"Oh please, you and I both know you have little control over your magic, Noelle Silva." The man said in a sly term, "Yes, I know your identity, and I will be taking you back now. Your family oh so misses you, and I will be the one to bring you home. When I do, your family will be SO happy that they will give me your hand in marriage."

This guy has to be an idiot, no way can someone be this stupid that he tells me his entire plan and expect me to go along with it. Noelle thought, and said the same thing to him.

"Oh my princess, I'm hurt that you would say such a thing. I am a 3rd class junior knight, and my name is sir Percy Uffar, but soon that will be sir Percy Silva. That is, once I take you back with me."

Noelle couldn't believe this guy. "I literally just asked you how you were going to take me, and you just gloated. What, are you going to gloat me into coming back?"

"Oh please, you and I both know you can't hit me."

"Wanna bet?" Noelle asked sinisterly. Funny, she didn't think she could do that. All she did back then was cry. When Solid tore up her bunny, she cried. When her father killed himself, she cried. When Nozel said she didn't matter and that she was useless, she cried herself to sleep that night. No more. She thought. With that, she let loose. All her magic, all her anger, all the times her family cut her out, she let it all out.

Thank god I'm done with this goddamn chapter! I was in a writers block for this time and it just affected the fic more and more. Still, expect the next chapter to come out around February. But for now, I sleep! As of writing this, it's 9:51 EST. Not late by any means, but I've had a long ass day. See ya!
